If you are of a certain age, like me, then you will remember watching “Chitty, Chitty, Bang, Bang!” on the television, probably around Christmas or Easter time. We were all scared of the “Child Catcher” and did not quite understand the relationship between the Baron and Baroness!

Here we are, a “few” years later and PHCYT proudly present their version of the beloved story. The rehearsal time for this show has not been very long at all and the cast have worked amazingly hard to get the production to the standard that you see today – I am sure that you will be very proud of them as we are.

A few other people to thank. Firstly, my “partner-in-crime” Peter Dodsworth who has sorted out the singing, singers, sound effects and music tracks. I want to thank Lee Farnam for his amazing vision when designing the set, while also allowing me a say in how things should look as well as searching for ages to get the best projections to make our show seem even more magical. Thanks to Chris Swallow and his gang for bringing Lee’s vision to life and for building up muscles so that they can move the car! Thanks to Jason and Jack for all their work on the sound and lighting. Finally a big thank you to Julie, Lucy, Helen, Nidhi, Katie and all the other ladies in the costume team for getting a massive array of costumes together.

We have had a lot of laughter rehearsing this show, with a few scary moments. Don’t forget, if you are ever at a loss for something to do on a Sunday afternoon, the windmill from the movie is only at Stokenchurch – not far from Watford. 

I hope you enjoy the show.
